Abstract
A method includes generating an entry for inclusion in a configuration queue regarding a configuration submission regarding DSN managed by a managing unit that uses a manager's configuration database stored in a first database. The method further includes updating a first version of the configuration queue stored in first database and a second version of the configuration queue stored in a manager's vault to include the entry. When the manager's configuration database requires restoring, the method further includes copying a backup version of the manager's configuration database to the first database to create an initially restored manager's configuration database and establishing an association between the managing unit and the initially restored manager's configuration database. When associated, the method further includes accessing the second version, identifying configuration changes not included in the initially restored manager's configuration database, and updating the initially restored manager's configuration database to include the identified configuration changes.
